what are the care instructions to make it last and continue to look like new?

Like most woods, to oil it. I like to keep it dark, I don't like the faded disyreessed look of some hardwoods such as teak when it turns gray. So I oil it on a regular basis.

Directions to "slap" it on, (you'll need to be more intentional than that) will come in the packaging. There' also a link to a video, you should watch. The screen itself should last a long time unless you somehow scratch or tear it.

It will last a life time, literally, as long as you take care of it. Don't spill any food on it, don't drop it, don't cut, etc, and it will last forever.

Ours is over 2 years old , we use it 3-4 times a month and it is almost like new . We use soft plastic or silicone utensils and hand wash it.

keep it in an airtight glass jar in a dark place out of sunlight and it will last a long while. Over time it will slowly lose its freshness.

I've had one of these for I would say 25 years or so. I had it in the tube it came in & somehow it ended up in the cellar. I found it a couple years ago and it was stiff as a board in the tube. I was ready to throw it out, but soaked it in water & then threw it in washing machine. It came out like new, with only some darker spots & I'm still using it to this day. I store it in a small Tupperware container filled with water. I'm wondering if these new ones are made to last as long as the original ones. If so, I'm going to get a new one as this one has some stains from rubber parts or oil.

just run it through some water until its soft again and keep it in a sealed plastic container(like the one it came in) so it doesn't lose the moisture when left in dry areas or not used for a long time.

I too believe that it will last indefinitely if treated with care. I forget when I purchased mine but it's going strong and is worth the price. If I needed another one I would repurchase this very same one.

The item is well made so they should last if it is well taken care of. Should be able to last for more than 3 years.

I've had mine for several years and it still looks as good as new. I think it's a baked on enamil.

Depends on how hard you write on it. If you need it spotless I'll use some vinegar, the vinegar makes it look new again.

Agree with Joan. Just let it sit overnight. As with all of these touch-up paints, none of them last forever. You WILL occasionally have to re-touch once in a while. But Porcafix is SOOOO much better than the garbage that you will now find in Lowe's or Home Depot.

3-4 hours is what I would recommend. Also keeping it covered in plastic and warm. Sit in the sun or warm with a dryer or warm towels periodically. Speeds the process and helps promote richer color

We have had ours for 3 years and they still look like new. We put covers on them when we are not using them which helps keep them clean.

Hi Kkrome. I would say a long, long time. All you do is rinse it off when it gets too dirty. It is a fabric of some sort. Make sure you let it dry out thoroughly before you use it again. I have only had mine a couple months.

I clean it with soap & water, with a plain water rinse after that (not even after every use, depending on what I have used it for). I also wipe it down once in a while with the mineral oil. I've had this board for quite a while now, I use it daily & it is still as beautiful as the day I received it. The mineral oil really helps keep it clean.
